$$: Health & Clothing
Computer Lesson — $0.00
Another fabulously productive One-to-One computer lesson on my iMac at the Apple store. The $79 (usually $99 but as a homeschooler I get their educator’s discount) I spent on that year of One-to-One instruction is unquestionably one of the best values and wisest purchases I’ve ever made.
Panda Express — $0.00

$$: NPR, Gas, Groceries, Health Care, & ….. Paint
Oh, what a day! I had a car at my disposal all day. It was heaven.
Spoiler Alert: Son, if you’re reading this stop now or spend the next two months already knowing what you’re getting for Christmas.

Several weeks ago The Son discovered NPR. Since then we’ve gone from debating whose iPod to listen [...]
$$: Supplements, Frozen Mac & Cheese, & Health Care
Colonic — $70.00
My poor IBS-racked gut really needed a tune-up after all of that anesthesia and constipation-inducing Vicodin.
[As a bit of an aside: The Husband and I had an interesting conversation the other night about the failing economy and belt-tightening. My point was that luxury items would be one of the first things to be [...]

Day 213: Woot, Lavage, Gas, Book, Starbucks, and Bad News
Woot — $19.99
My first-ever Woot purchase. I usually start out my on-line day by checking out the daily Woot deal but I’ve never seriously been tempted to buy anything until today. This morning’s deal was a Tuesday 2-fer pack of Black & Decker CP120B Backup Batteries. The purchase price was $14.99 with $5 shipping.
These battery packs [...]
Day 208: Returns, Towels, and Lavage
Lavage session — $70.00
It’s expensive. It’s painful. But the effect it’s having on my IBS is both undeniable and fabulous. This is the longest stretch of symptom relief I’ve had in about a decade.
